Chapter 100: Mid-Autumn Festival Banquet (Part II)
"What are you doing here?" Li Jingzhuang looked at Li Zhen, who was hiding behind him, and asked in surprise. Pen @ fun @ pavilion wWw. ļ½ļ½ļ½Uļ½Eć ļ½ļ½ļ½ļ½
"Shelter!" Li Zhen smiled awkwardly.
"Don't talk nonsense, where is there any disaster! If Your Majesty hears it, punish your sins carefully! Li Jingzhuang hurriedly covered Li Zhen's mouth and said in a low voice.
However, Princess Yanqing only smiled contemptuously, and then swept her gaze over Li Zhen's body, and finally landed on a young official in a green-robed official uniform on the other side of Li Jingzhuang.
This person is Zheng Hao, who was the right picker at the time, that is, the champion concubine who was forced by Li Chen to marry Princess Wanshou in the future.
"Zheng Shizhi is the champion and the first, why don't you come and give a song!" Yanqing said with a smile.
After hearing this, Li Zhen couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief.
I saw that the young official got up slowly, and almost as soon as he got up, he groaned without thinking: "Ten miles of Chang'an month, ten thousand miles to Yaoguan." The jade rabbit solves the golden armor, and the atrium is arboreal and cold. ā
After speaking, the ministers couldn't help but praise each other, even Li Chen nodded again and again, "Yangzheng is really not shallow, let's not talk about this poem, it is enough to show that his writing is very good!" It's just that this one is still not as good as Yanqing's! ā
When the words fell, I saw Zheng Hao say again, "The minister's poem is indeed not as good as Princess Yanqing, this time the minister admits defeat!" ā
"Well, Yangzheng dares to admit defeat but I am very pleased, since this is the case, then Yanqing will choose another person!" Li Chen said with a smile.
Yanqing immediately looked around at the ministers again, and then smiled at a young official in a scarlet robe: "I have heard that Bachelor Liu is talented and talented, and I hope to give him advice!" ā
The official in this scarlet robe is named Liu Yao, with a full character, a bachelor of Hanlin, who was a scholar at the time, and knew the system.
I saw Liu Yao get up and think about it: "The residual candle shines on the wind and Xiaoxiao, and the night rain is another night." Jagged smoke tree clear bottle wine, Gangneung ancient road Baling Bridge. ā
After saying that, before everyone could speak, Liu Yao immediately said: "This poem is really a hasty work, there is a suspicion that the text is not right, the princess has been famous for a long time, and the minister admits defeat!" ā
"Hahaha, Ziquan can deceive others, but he can't deceive me, how can you admit defeat so easily with your talent, I'm afraid it's intentional humility!" Li Chen laughed.
Liu Yao suddenly became a little embarrassed after hearing this, but this poem was intentionally humble, but he didn't want Li Chen to see it.
Seeing this, Yanqing also smiled and said: "You are all humble, but it makes me a little ugly, in this case, we might as well change the rules again, we don't want to be good or bad, just ask for a quick word!" ā
"Hehe, when the princess became a poem in seven steps, she shocked the world, who can compare! I don't think it's comparable! At this time, I only heard an old man in a scarlet robe laughing and laughing, and this person was Li Jingzhuang's brother Li Jingrang, who was the waiter of the Ministry of Rites at the time.
"Hou Jigong's words are wrong, originally today's picture is a lively one, and it is also good to take this opportunity to let His Majesty and foreign envoys take a look at our Tang Dynasty talents are not in vain, the poetry is small, the national sports are big, it must be compared!" Yanqing said with a smile.
"What Yanqing said is good, it doesn't hurt to compare, but I don't know who you want to choose this time?" Li Chen nodded and asked.
"Speaking of which, the poet Yanqing here has already been taught in the past, but today there is a young talent in this hall who has not yet been taught, and that is him!" As she spoke, she saw Princess Yanqing stretch out her hand and point at Li Zhen.
After hearing this, Li Chen was stunned for a moment, but since Yanqing opened his mouth, he couldn't stop it, so he had to smile at Li Zhen: "Li Zhen, are you willing to deal with Princess Yanqing?" ā
"Back to Your Majesty, the grass people are willing to bow down!" Seeing this, Li Zhen replied without thinking.
As soon as this remark came out, everyone was stunned, this is obviously not the proper routine, even if you recite a few limericks indiscriminately, you can't admit defeat so simply!
At this time, I saw Bai Minzhong snort coldly and said: "Li Zhen, this foreign envoy is here, you are hurting the country by doing this!" ā
"What Bai Xiang said is extremely true, although this land of Jingnan has been a wilderness since ancient times, and there are tens of millions of people who should take the exam, but there has never been a person who has made it to the list, but Ling Zun was once the Yin of Jiangling Mansion, is it possible that he can't even teach his own son well? If this is the case, then Yanqing really wants to implore His Majesty to carefully consider the candidate for this Youzhou Thorn History! Yanqing also lost no time in mocking.
"What the princess said is good, this Li Zhenping is a prodigal wreck, obviously this Li Ziyun has no way to teach his son, since this is the case, how can he be a big responsibility, please make a clear decision!" The person who spoke was none other than Pei Tian, a member of the Criminal Department.
"Hey, I think this is wrong, Princess Fangcai said that the land of Jingnan is a desolate place, so it must be a talent exhaustion, and I heard that the people there are not good at anything other than making money, Your Royal Highness Princess, aren't you embarrassed for him!?"
The Tang Dynasty values agriculture and lowly merchants, and regards businessmen as people who value profit over righteousness, obviously this statement compares the entire land of Jingnan to businessmen, which is extremely demeaning.
As soon as these words came out, there was a burst of laughter, and everyone looked at Li Zhen with a little more banter in their eyes.
Seeing this, Li Zhen sneered in his heart, "It's really some people who have fallen into the well!" ā
"Hehe, Li Zhen is still young, among you people are either Jinshi or Menyin Jinshi who have been important ministers of the court for many years, this time it is difficult for a junior, but he is really good-minded!" Lu Shang sneered with an angry face.
"What the minister said is good, the minister thinks that Li Zhen is not a courtier, after all, he is just a young man who has not yet reached the crown, and the prince's words are inevitably a little aggressive!" Li Jingzhuang also got up and said at this time.
"Teenager? Hehe, then today let's talk about this Tang Dynasty boy, Wang Zi'an made a speech at the age of six, Luo Bin Wang was seven years old and could write, Li Taibai was ten years old and knew the Five Classics, Yang Yingchuan was eleven years old and was already a school scholar of Hongwenguan, Wang Majie was nine years old and knew the words and sounds, Yuan Weizhi was fifteen years old and Mingjing was a doctor, and Bai Letian was five years old to write poems. Princess Yanqing smiled like a flower, and her words suddenly made Li Jingzhuang's face flush.
"Enough!" At this moment, Li Chen shouted angrily.
The hall was suddenly silent, and several envoys who were watching the excitement were also frightened, and hurriedly lowered their heads and said nothing.
Princess Yanqing and Bai Min also bowed their heads immediately, but they could see a look of pride on their faces.
For the two of them, Li Zhen didn't dare to deal with it, and naturally lost His Majesty's face, so His Majesty would inevitably be angry with Li Zhen, so the more His Majesty was angry, the greater Li Zhen's sin became, and his goal seemed to have been achieved.
"In front of foreign envoys, you are so entangled, it is really insulting, and I have lost all my face!" Li Chen scolded angrily, "Since Li Zhen can't deal with it, then I can choose someone else, I want to hold on to such a baby, for the minister, how can I leave this world to you to take care of?!" ā
As soon as the words fell, I saw Li Zhen's head slowly raised, with a bright smile on his face, and at the same time said loudly: "Your Majesty, the grass people are right, but ...... But this rule needs to be changed! ā
